The overarching theme of Grateful American is that Sinise is grateful to have been born in a country—the United States of America—that has given him the opportunities he‘s had, and allowed him the freedom to pursue his goals while acknowledging and emphasising that freedom is not a free gift.

Yours Truly, Thomas | Rachel Fordham

Mehso-so

Yours Truly, Thomas took a long time to get going. The nature of the story—the dead letter office—meant it had to start with Penny and Thomas in different places, and for there to be a reasonable period of time before they met. But I found the opening dragged as a result. The story picked up pace and got a lot more interesting once Penny arrived in Azure Springs and met Thomas.

Whose Waves These Are | Amanda Dykes
post image

Whose Waves These Are is a difficult novel to describe. It has a strong voice, strong writing, strong characters, and a dual-level plot that offers lots of questions and answers them all. Yes, there were a couple of scenes towards the end which I‘m not sure worked as well, but overall it‘s an excellent first novel. Recommended.

Love this first line!

Laura317 😂😂I remember reading Erma Bombeck saying right before going to sleep, she'd tell her husband that the IRS called for him and said they'd call back, so she could get to sleep before he did. Apparently he snored. A lot. 7y

Up to 75% and still not sure what to think. Excellent writing but this is meant to be Christian fiction and the theology is less Bible and more Terry Pratchett meets Hogwarts ... think Death and a ghost as main characters.
